چکیده

A triple mutant of P450pyr monooxygenase (P450pyrTM) catalysed the epoxidation of several para-substituted styrenes as the first enzyme showing high (R)-enantioselectivity and high conversion, demonstrated a broad substrate range, and showed high enantioselectivity for the epoxidation of an unconjugated 1,1-disubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-3-phenyl-1-propene, and a cyclic alkene, N-phenoxycarbonyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine, respectively.

Inverting the enantioselectivity of P450pyr monooxygenase by directed evolution.

We report the first example of directed evolution of a P450 monooxygenase with inverted enantioselectivity for asymmetric biohydroxylation. The biohydroxylation product of the best mutant 1AF4A has an ee of 83% (R) compared to the wild type's ee of 43% (S).

Highly enantioselective epoxidation of styrenes: implication of an electronic effect on the competition between spiro and planar transition states.

Asymmetric epoxidation of various styrenes using carbocyclic oxazolidinone-containing ketone 3 has been investigated. High enantioselectivity (89-93% enantiomeric excess) has been attained for this challenging class of alkenes. Mechanistic studies show that substituents on the ketone catalyst can have electronic influences on secondary orbital interactions, which affects the competition between...

Asymmetric epoxidation of olefins catalyzed by Ti(salan) complexes using aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant*

Ti(salan) complexes were found to be efficient catalysts for asymmetric epoxidation with aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant. In the presence of pH 7.4 phosphate buffer, the reaction of various conjugate olefins proceeded smoothly to afford the corresponding epoxides in high yield with high enantioselectivity, even on a multigram scale. Ti(salan) complexes could be prepared from Ti(OiPr)4 ...

Immobilization of Cu(II)-Histidine Complex on Al-MCM-41 as Catalyst for Epoxidation of Alkenes

Cu(II) complex with L-histidine (His) ligand, immobilized within Al-MCM-41, designated as Cu(His)2/Al-MCM-41 was prepared and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption desorption, FTIR, UV-Vis and chemical analysis techniques. The surface area and pore volume were found to decrease after immobilization of Cu(II) complex on Al-MCM-41. It was found that Cu(His)2/Al-MCM-...
